Water Restrictions

Nearly every region of our province is experiencing severe drought conditions. It is up to all of us to do our part to reduce our water consumption to help mitigate the impacts of the drought. To that end, Chase Fire Rescue will be following water conservation measures and take the following actions:

• Will Refrain from washing emergency vehicles unless required for decontamination or operational purposes, including officer and public safety.
